Review from Hayley F (Mother of Child) published on 1 March 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter was seven months when she started Boys & Girls nursery and attends three full days a week. Since her first day (one and a half years ago), she has absolutely loved going to nursery each day and we have not had one tear when dropping her off. The staff are fantastic and always very friendly;
they make it very welcoming and all the staff know my daughter by name. I believe my daughter’s social skills are purely down to attending Boys & Girls and I couldn’t ask for more out of a nursery; I would highly recommend them.

The baby room team at Boys & Girls Nursery Croxley are absolutely brilliant. They have loved and nurtured my son from day one and with their help and support, he has grown and learnt so much. They have also supported me as a working parent and I couldn’t be happier with the nursery. So loving, caring
and attentive. And my son also loves all the food and messy play!

My son has progressed so much in their care in the last two months and as a single full-time mum, I know that he is well looked after. I would like to thank the whole team in his progress at the terrible two stage of his life and can’t thank them enough in their support with the fact that my child is
asthmatic. All issues are reported to me promptly and professionally and I know whilst I am at work my son is looked after so I can relax and concentrate on my career. Thank you to the team at Croxley for all your help.

I have two kids who attend this nursery and they love it. They have learnt loads since attending and always tell me about the activities they do. They come home happy and often say lunch was "yummy". The staff are very friendly and I would highly recommend this nursery.

My two girls have recently left for school and attended Boys & Girls since they were 10 months old. The care provided was excellent with amazing staff who would go above and beyond. The management team are excellent and it's proven by how happy the staff are. Food was freshly cooked and you always have
a daily update of how your child has been. This is a lovely nursery knowing that you can feel at ease leaving your child there. My girls miss the nursery so much and talk about it all the time. Thank you so much, Boys & Girls, we will be using you again in the future.

Both my 2 children attended Boys & Girls Nursery Croxley Green. The staff are amazing at what they do. Always very helpful, polite and well presented. The building is very well maintained With an excellent garden space. My children settled in right away and would come home telling me how much fun they
have had. They made friends, loved the staff, food and activities.
An excellent service.

Boys & Girls Nursery Croxley is where my daughter goes to and now my son has also joined. The staff is very friendly and always happy to help. The quality of care they give is as good as how we as parents would do. Food is healthy and a good variety. Lots of space and toys for outdoor play. I would
definitely recommend this nursery.

Choosing Boys & Girls Nursery in Croxley Green for my daughter has been one of the best choices I've made. The staff are superb, my daughter was very anxious at first but thanks to the caring nature of the staff in a short space of time, she has really settled in and is showing signs of real personal
development. I feel confident in leaving my child in their care and the activities and structure they have are providing my daughter with the skills she will need to move onto preschool. The building is modern and offers plenty of space for learning and playing. The menus are varied and nutritious and my daughter is enjoying a real range of foods. This is a superb nursery that not only provides quality trained staff and facilities but has a real family based feel.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It's always a big decision when choosing which nursery your child will go too, but I have absolutely no regrets about my choice.


From day one, she has been given so much love, kindness, care and support and I am honestly amazed to see how much she has progressed.


She has additional needs, and

so sometimes she needs a little extra support with certain things, but the staff have always gone the extra mile to help her, and to ensure she reaches her potential and more!


She is now 4 (and started when she was just 1) and I firmly believe that if it wasn't for attending such a fantastic nursery, with such fantastic people working for them, that she would not be where she is today - and I can't thank Boys & Girls enough.


If you're looking for a nursery environment that is full of fun, care, learning and so much more, then I strongly recommended this one.

Boys & Girls (B&G's) Croxley Green have truly been a second family to us and both my boys who started with them at 11months old (now 2yrs & 4yrs) have been thriving ever since in every kind of way. All of the staff have been fantastic in their own way and provided the love, care and attention each of
my boys needed from the very beginning, all the way through each room setting, especially with challenging milestones such as potty training. I have always felt so comfortable leaving them in their expert care and my boys literally cannot wait to get to nursery and join in the fun. My 4yr old is off to school this Sept and he will miss the team immensely - they have provided great role models with a good balance of male and female staff who he adores and talks of so fondly. I would without hesitation recommend this nursery to any parent; I am so pleased I have another 2yrs of care left for my youngest so the team will continue to be part of our lives. Thank you, B&G's Croxley - you're all wonderful.

I worried about leaving my son at nursery when I first returned to work however after meeting the staff and seeing first hand my son's joy every day he went - my mind was put at ease.


From the very first day, they treated my son like family and were very quick to accommodate him going from part to

full time.


The hours are flexible and my son is thriving! Not enough can be said - except, thank you ALL.

We have had a great experience with the nursery and are glad that we chose a boys and girls nursery.
It's so organised, staff are excellent, they ensure that the child feels safe at nursery, enjoys it and feels nursery is like a second home. Our child had a difficult time initially being away from
home and us but nursery staff and the room leader tried their absolute best to make both us and our child feel comfortable soon. It's such a peace of mind being at work when you know your child is happy and safe at the nursery.

My son started at Boys & Girls Nursery Croxley when he was 9 months old. He loves it there! He gets to socialise with lots of different children, try lots of different foods and go out for walks along the canal with the staff. His key worker is brilliant and he's warmed to all the staff in the baby
room. Would happily recommend this nursery.

My 3-year daughter has attended Boys & Girls Nursery Croxley Green since she was 10 months old. Within that time she has grown in confidence thanks to the help of their wonderful staff. She has grown to be a strong, independent free thinking child whilst attending nursery. She has lots of fun and is
always looking forward to going. Nothing is too much trouble when asking for feedback from the staff and the manager has a very hands on approach.

The most heart warming experience for any mother (parent) is to be able to drop your child off at nursery and they run off to enjoy their day. Turn around to come and say good bye, giving a cuddle and a kiss, and then runs off again (my little one is 18 months old). He loves the school. He loves his
carers and they are so incredibly nurturing, caring and patient. They give good guidance. They listen and they really do what they can to be what you would expect from someone who cares after your baby/child all day.

Great nursery! Both management and staff really care about the children and their families. There are even events for parents (e.g. first aid course, nutrition evening). Low staff turnover. Varied and creative activities. My daughter always eats well at nursery. Healthy and tasty meals cooked
on site. Great communication with parents via weekly newsletters. Staff always friendly and approachable. Love the fact that it's not a big chain but run by a family who really care about children and understand the needs of both children and parents. Highly recommend this nursery!! :-D

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.948)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.948) out of 10 for Boys & Girls Nursery Croxley Green is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.0 out of 5 from 6 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.931 for Boys & Girls Nursery Croxley Green is calculated as follows: ( (67 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.931
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.017 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Boys & Girls Nursery Croxley Green is based on 6 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 = 3.6
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 72 number of registered child places is 14.4. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.4 = 0.417
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
